Dual-Band WiFi 6 Performance for Dense Environments

The VigorAP 905 leverages WiFi 6 technology to deliver up to 3Gbps combined throughput across both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. With 600Mbit/s on 2.4GHz and 2400Mbit/s on 5GHz, it handles multiple high-bandwidth devices simultaneously. The Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) and Airtime Fairness features ensure efficient distribution of bandwidth, preventing slower devices from impacting faster ones. This makes it particularly suitable for offices, schools, or large homes with many connected devices.

Flexible Deployment with Power over Ethernet

Power over Ethernet+ support eliminates the need for a nearby power socket, allowing clean installation in optimal locations. The AP can be powered via PoE switch or the included AC adapter. With five Gigabit Ethernet ports including one 2.5Gb port, it functions as both an access point and a mini switch, connecting wired devices like computers and printers. The detachable antennas provide additional flexibility for optimizing signal coverage.

Enterprise-Grade Security and Management

Built-in DrayOS provides comprehensive management through web-based interface, CLI, and Wi-Fi scheduling. Security features include WPA3 encryption, 802.1x RADIUS authentication, MAC address filtering, and configurable Access Control Lists with whitelist/blacklist options. VLAN support and multiple SSIDs allow network segmentation for different user groups. Syslog functionality enables detailed monitoring and troubleshooting, while firmware upgrades keep security current.

Versatile Mounting Options

The VigorAP 905 offers multiple placement options including desk, shelf, table, or wall mounting. The included mounting kit facilitates permanent installation where needed. LED indicators for power, USB, WLAN, and Wi-Fi provide at-a-glance status information. A physical on/off switch and reset button offer convenient local control, while the WPS push button enables quick secure device pairing.
